AbstractNew C2-glycosyl triazole derivatives 6a–l were synthesized by cyclization of glycosyl acylthiosemicarbazides 5 in refluxing 3 N sodium hydroxide aqueous solution. Substrates 5 were obtained by the reaction of glycosyl isothiocyanate 3 with various hydrazides. The acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities of compounds 6 were tested by Ellman’s method. Compounds that exhibited over 85% inhibition were subsequently evaluated for the IC50 values. Compound 6f possesses the best acetylcholinesterase-inhibition activity with IC50 of 1.46±0.25 μg/mL.

The volatile oil from leaves of Arbutus unedo L. from Croatia was subjected to chemical composition and acetylcholinesterase inhibition activity. The tested volatile oil was dominated by nonterpene compounds, with (E)-2-decenal, nonanal, nonanoic acid and octanol as main compounds. Terpene compounds were identified in lower quantity, with linalool and α-terpineol as main ones. Results showed low to moderate acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition potential of tested oil, for tested concentration of 1 mg/mL.

A new coumarin derivative, (E)-3-(3-(4-(dimethylamino) phenyl) acrylo-yl)-4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one (3), was synthesized by the condensation of 3-acetyl-4-hydroxycoumarin (1) with 4-N,N-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde (2) in the presence of piperidine in ethanol. The structure of the synthesized compound was characterized using spectroscopic data (IR and 1H NMR) and elemental analysis. The antimicrobial properties and acetylcholinesterase inhibition activity (AChEI) of coumarin 3 were investigated, with the highest observed AChEI activity providing 48.25% inhibition. The electronic absorption and emission spectra revealed that 3 exists as two, main keto-enol tautomers. The ratios of these tautomers in both protic and aprotic solvents with different polarities and dielectric constants were calculated. The fluorescence of coumarin 3 was enhanced upon increasing the medium viscosity, which was due to the resultant molecular rigidity. This criterion was further investigated using DNA, whereby 3 showed enhanced fluorescence upon its uptake in DNA grooves and was therefore tested as a novel DNA fluorescent stain.

A new series of C2-glycosyl benzofuranylthiazole derivatives was synthesised by the further cyclization of glycosyl thiourea and 2-(bromoacetyl)-benzofuran via Hantzsch’s method. The corresponding 2-(bromoacetyl)-benzofuran derivatives were obtained by the reaction from various salicylaldehydes, and the glycosyl thiourea was prepared through a series of steps from D-Glucosamine. The acetylcholinesterase-inhibitory activities of the products were tested by Ellman’s method. The most active compounds were subsequently evaluated for the 50% inhibitory concentration values. N-(1,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-(5-methoxy-benzofuran-2-yl)-1,3-thiazole-2-amine possessed the best acetylcholinesterase-inhibition activity with a 50% inhibitory concentration of 2.03 ± 0.26 μM.

Three novel 5-benzyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives were synthesised starting from phenylacetic acid derivatives. These compounds were characterised by NMR, HRMS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. 2-Pyrrolidyl-5-[2-(4-bromophenyl)methyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazole showed moderate acetylcholinesterase-inhibition activity with a 50% inhibitory concentration value of 33.16 μM. 2-Pyrrolidyl-5-[2-(4-bromophenyl)methyl]-1,3,4-thiadiazole and acetylcholinesterase docking was demonstrated using the Molecular Operating Environment program.
